Chitinozoan nomenclature and databases by Sonia Camina, Olle Hints, Anthony Butcher

“…Since the beginning of their study, chitinozoan workers have used a binominal taxonomy describing genera and species based on morphological features. In 1999, Florentin Paris and co-authors introduced a revised suprageneric classification regulated by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), which proved very efficient and has since been followed by all workers on this group. …”

A comparison of first-attempt cannulation success of peripheral venous catheter systems with and without wings and injection ports in surgical patients—a randomized trial by Rudolf Mörgeli, Katrin Schmidt, Tim Neumann, Jochen Kruppa, Ulrich Föhring, Pascal Hofmann, Peter Rosenberger, Elke Falk, Willehad Boemke, Claudia Spies

“…Reinsertion of the needle into the catheter after partial withdrawal—prior or during the catheterization attempt—was associated with an increased risk of cannulation failure (7.909, CI 5.989–10.443, P < .001 and 23.023, CI 10.372–51.105, P < .001, respectively) and a twofold risk of catheter damage (OR 1.999, CI 1.347–2.967, P = .001). Conclusions First-attempt cannulation success of peripheral, ported, winged catheters was higher compared to non-ported, non-winged devices. …”
